Method #2 - screen dump - worth doing even if you have already done the show run

In GNS3, make sure your topology is showing interface labels [Select View | Show/Hide interface labels. You may have to move the labels a little so they are clearly visible - be careful. Make sure you put the right label next o the right interface]

Take a picture of your screen

On a PC, hit Alt+PrintScreen, open Paint and paste in your screendump. Save your file

On a Mac, Hit Shift+Ctrl+Cmd+4 - when the crossbar appears click and drag a rectangle to select your screendump. Open the Preview app, select File|New from clipboard . Save your picture

Back at the post where you are describing your problem, look at the area UNDER you post where the (hard to read) Upload Attachment section is.

Click on [Choose File], find the file you saved earlier and click [OK] - but that's not all

Now you ALSO have to click [Add the File] - still not done

Finally, you have to realise that your cursor will have been moved in the above steps. Place your cursor back where you want the picture to go and look just under the section where you are typing and click [Place inline]

Your picture should now be in your post

If your problem involves configs, you MIGHT want to include them, or include parts of them.

Before posting, RE-READ your posting, putting yourself in the mind of someone else reading it. Have you made assumptions that another person might miss? Have you included details that are not relevant to the problem?

Note: This post was inspired by the following post - which does a pretty good explanation, but no screendump or show run:

Hi All !I am setting up HSRP routing lab in GNS3. I am using 2 multilayer switches and 2 access switches with IOS 3700. I have created 5 VLANS in the network. Every thing has been set-up successfully. HSRP functionality is fine on multilayer switches. It has been tested and verified. Ip routing has been activated on multilayer switches and I am getting all the VLAN interfaces in routing tables of both multilayer switches. After all my efforts I could not get VLAN routing working. All the nodes in the VLANs are able to ping the related virtual gateway configured on the HSRP (Multilayer Switches) but not able to ping the host in the other VLAN. Please guide me what I am missing here. I really appreciate the response.
